Glycomimicry: Display of the GM3 sugar epitope on Escherichia coli and Salmonella enterica sv Typhimurium [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Oligosaccharides present on the surface of pathogenic bacteria play an important role in their interaction with their host. Bacteria with altered cell surface structures can be used to study these interactions, and glycoengineering represents a tool to ...

A 23 kDa membrane glycoprotein bearing NeuNAcα2-3Galβ1-3GalNAc O-linked carbohydrate chains acts as a receptor for Streptococcus sanguis OMZ 9 on human buccal epithelial cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Streptococcus sanguis colonizes several human oral surfaces, including both hard and soft tissues. Large salivary mucin like glycoproteins bearing sialic acid residues are known to bind various S.sanguis strains.

Profiling of Glycan Receptors for Minute Virus of Mice in Permissive Cell Lines Towards Understanding the Mechanism of Cell Recognition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The recognition of sialic acids by two strains of minute virus of mice (MVM), MVMp (prototype) and MVMi (immunosuppressive), is an essential requirement for successful infection.

On the interactions of lipids and proteins in the red blood cell membrane [PDF]

open access: yes, 1970
The effects of temperature and of the action of a purified phospholipase C enzyme preparation on human red blood cell membranes has been investigated by chemical analyses, circular dichroism, and proton magnetic resonance measurements.

Mucin glycosylation and sulphation in airway epithelial cells is not influenced by cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator expression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Abnormalities in mucus properties and clearance make a major contribution to the pathology of cystic fibrosis (CF). Our aim was to test the hypothesis that the defects in CF mucus are a direct result of mutations in the CF transmembrane conductance ...

Decoding GNE Myopathy: From Molecular Basis to Therapeutic Advances

open access: yesAnnals of Indian Academy of Neurology
GNE myopathy is a rare, adult-onset, autosomal recessive muscle disorder caused by biallelic pathogenic variants in the GNE gene, which encodes a key enzyme in the biosynthesis of sialic acid. Deficient GNE enzyme activity results in decreased production

The role of sialyl glycan recognition in host tissue tropism of the avian parasite Eimeria tenella.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2011
Eimeria spp. are a highly successful group of intracellular protozoan parasites that develop within intestinal epithelial cells of poultry, causing coccidiosis.

Yunis Varon Syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We have reported a case of Yunis-Varon syndrome which is a rare, autosomal recessive syndrome characterized by growth retardation, defective growth of the cranial bones, characteristic facial features, abnormalities of the fingers and/or toes ...

In vitro and in vivo modification of Neisseria gonorrhoeae lipooligosaccharide epitope structure by sialylation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
After growth of gonococci in the presence of cytidine monophospho-N-acetyl-neuraminic acid (CMP-NANA), their 4.5-kD lipooligosaccharide (LOS) component was increased by approximately 400 daltons, whereas the LOS of strains lacking the 4.5-kD component ...
